TASTING
The breadth and depth of this wine are a testament to the high proportion and exceptional quality of the reserve wines that have gone into the blend.

Eyes: bright, clear, pale gold tints woven with very fine bubbles.

Nose: the freshness of the Chardonnay, aromas of white flesh fruit such as pears and
nectarines, ethereal touches of peony expressed by the Pinot Noir.
On the second nose: a spicier range, complexity with aromas of dried apricots and
almonds.

Palate: roundness and generosity accompany a lovely verticality. Crisp nectarine,
notes of honey, saffron and pepper nicely set off by lovely bitters on the finish.

FOOD PAIRING & SERVING
Ideal as an aperitif or enjoyed throughout a meal with dishes such as gently fried sea
scallops, shellfish or rockfish. You can also pair it with a risotto, fine white meat or a
farmhouse Brie de Meaux cheese.

Recommended serving temperature: 8-10°C
